[quote="Mr.Buttocks":0eaa5]I have Morrowind and the Bloodmoon/Tribunal expansions, never could get "into" it/them.[/quote:0eaa5]

Really? I got Morrowind with my GF FX 5600 video card a couple years back and I had never heard of the game, but I installed it and couldn't stop playing.

[quote:0eaa5] That looks amazing ...

Would I need to have played the last 3 games in the series to truley appreciate this?[/quote:0eaa5]

No. The stories aren't really connected to each other. Oblivion takes place 6 years after morrowind, but its in a totally different part of the empire. In each of the elder scrolls games you start off with a totally new character. There will probably be a lot of similarities between morrowind and oblivion that those who have played morrowind will recgonize, but you don't need to play morrowind to get oblivion. I haden't played elder scrolls 1 or 2 when i got morrowind.
